Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Gongylonema pulchrum is a zoonotic parasite rarely found in humans. To date, there have been no reports on the carcinogenic properties of G. pulchrum, and there are few reports overall on the relationship between esophageal cancer and parasites.
CASE PRESENTATION: This report describes the first case of esophageal gongylonemiasis coexisting with early esophageal cancer. The patient had no high-risk factors for esophageal cancer, such as smoking, flushing after drinking, or tumor history. We speculate the existence of unknown links between esophageal cancer and parasitic infection in this patient.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: We report the first case of a human presenting both esophageal G. pulchrum infection and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with the hope that it may provide evidence for a new hypothesis of tumorigenesis.
